About us

THE HISTORY OF LA BINERIE MONT-ROYAL June 11th, 1938 Joachim Lussier is the founder and first owner of La Binerie MONT-ROYAL. Assisted by his brother Leo, he decided that the traditional Quebec cuisine and family spirit are the pillars of the establishment. During the first 60 years, several members of their families worked at the restaurant and left their contributions and memories with the customers. La Binerie Mont-Royal has become a culinary institution in Quebec, which is proud to offer authentic Quebec cuisine to all those who want to remember the good experiences of family meals. Memorable experiences are created for all new customers! July 13th, 1966 Leo buys his brother's restaurant. In October of the same year, he hired a "new kid", a waiter, Fernand Groulx rapidly integrating with the Lussier family. In October 1969, Fernand weds Claire, Leo’s eldest daughter. So when Leo decided to retire - he knew that there was someone to take his place! August 4th, 1978, after 40 years of service, Leo sells La Binerie Mont-Royal to Fernand and Claire. The two work together for over 30 years! March 10th, 2001, the secret recipes of La Binerie Mont-Royal are given to a trio of restaurants in Quebec which brought some physical improvements to the restaurant. In March 2002, the torch of Quebec cuisine was purchased and continued by Suzanne Touchette and Bernard Deschamps. November 17th, 2005, Jocelyne and Philippe Brunet became the happy recipients of La Binerie Mont-Royal. They were looking for several months for a restaurant that offered food and special experience, which also had development potential. In hopes of making a cozier restaurant, the bar and the tables are now solid maple and walls are covered with pictures of our family traditions from the great Quebec illustrator Joseph-Edmond Massicotte. Several improvements in the menu were made and continue to be, so that the dishes offered can live up to the required quality, while respecting the authenticity of the Quebec cuisine! They like to offer their loyal customers and the many visitors from other countries, the pleasure of enjoying traditional dishes, making sure they leave with a good memory! Eating at La Binerie Mount Royal... is putting Quebec on your plate! At the La Binerie, you will feel at home!

Review Summary

La Binerie Mont Royal emerges in many reviews as a warm, nostalgic staple offering honest, comforting Quebecois cooking with generous portions and homemade quality. The menu centers on traditional favorites like fèves au lard, tourtière, pea soup, poutines, and crepes, all prepared on site and served in a bright, old Quebec decor that feels like a tiny museum of Montreal history. The atmosphere is described as welcoming, friendly, and family like, with attentive service and explanations of the dishes that make guests feel at home. The beans are repeatedly hailed as the star, richly flavorful and tender, while other classics such as shepherd's pie, boudin, and meat pies are praised for comforting textures and hearty portions that satisfy. The experience is often framed as an authentic, affordable, and memorable introduction to Quebec cuisine, with many visitors planning a return to sample more of the house made specialties and to soak up the ambiance.

We really enjoyed our breakfast. Dining here you experience a bit of Montreal history & enjoy traditional Quebecois cuisine. Home made goodness. Not fancy, just tasty honest generous food. The beans are a must!

Meet a couple of local friends here for a delicious, authentic Quebec breakfast. Spread some cretons on your grilled toast & enjoy the beans. Friendly, enthusiastic service. Popular with tourists but locals still love it!

This place has been on our list since we visited Montreal last year, but did not make it. Made a point to get there this year & kicked ourselves for not getting there sooner.
Went for breakfast & everything was absolutely perfect. To quote a great internet meme'I'm thinking about those beans.'
Will definitely be returning as soon as possible. Don't miss it!

A quaint diner with a pleasant interior for a simple breakfast or brunch. All dishes come with coffee or tea with refills, as well as the house's special beans, which were actually super good, to my surprise (I'm not really one to get excited about beans, but I look forward to having these again in the future). Prices were reasonable & all staff were friendly. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars was my small disappointment at not having any filling or toppings in the crepes I ordered, they were just plain pieces of dough.

Nice breakfast store. The baked beans are great. The meat pie is also very crunchy & tasty. The scramble eggs are also great. Highly recommend the meat pie or tourtiere & baked beans

A real gem - easily the best beans & cretons I've ever had! The food was delicious, generously portioned, & very fairly priced; coffee was free, service was wonderful, & the restaurant itself was very cozy. I ended up taking much of my breakfast home with me & I had ordered one of the smaller plates. We went for brunch, but we'll definitely be back some evening to try their Quebec history themed cocktails! Such a cute idea & I have no doubt they'd be delicious.

J'ai adoré mon premier breakfast québécois ! C'était super bon, l'assiette était copieuse j'avais le ventre plein toute la journée ! Notre serveur était un amour très gentil, à l'écoute & aux petits soins. Les tarifs sont très raisonnables également, je recommande fortement & je n'hésiterai pas à en parler autour de moi + si je reviens à Montréal je repasserai à coup sûr !

My husband & I visited La Binerie on our trip to Montreal. We chose it because of the good reviews, & it didn't disappoint! It felt very "homey," & the owner was so lovely. We loved the breakfasts we ordered (two eggs plate, & a piece of tortiere) & the coffee that was included was great as well. Check this place out!!

Don't miss this place in Montréal! So good we went twice! Food was amazing, everything was hot & fresh. Really nice retro decor, breakfast bar stools & old photographs. The beans were really tasty & so was the homemade creton. Fantastic service from the two older blokes, so friendly & welcoming. I've been having cravings for another La Binerie breakfast ever since we've been home!

I'm so lucky to be staying right beside La Binerie. The beans are SO GOOD & savory, & with a bit of a hardness, not soggy & sweet like so many. I enjoyed the bacon-sausage-egg breakfast & the owner is great company as well. I'm new to Montreal & his energy was very kind & welcoming. I also look forward to trying the not-fried poutine (wow!!!) when I come back again. The ambiance is also great & full of character, I love the long tables & stools. This place is worth a visit & just the fact that they've been around for 15+ years (maybe 20?) should tell you enough about how good they are!
